    Ron,

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE WOLF MAN ...

    "Even a man who is PURE IN HEART

    and says his PRAYERS BY NIGHT

    may become a WOLF when the WOLFBANE BLOOMS

    and the AUTUMN MOON is BRIGHT."

    ~ The Legend of "The Wolf Man"

    BEWARE OF THE BRIGHT FULL MOON!

    DON'T OPEN THE DOOR this HALLOWEEN NIGHT Ron!
     

    "JACKSON'S LOVE - FOR THE LOVE OF A CHILD" - MY BRAND NEW CD - HAS JUST BEEN RECORDED - WATCH FOR IT SOON @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT HALLOWEEN ...

    "Tis the night - the NIGHT

    Of the GRAVE'S DELIGHT,

    And the warlocks are at their play;

    Ye think that without

    The WILD WINDS shout,

    But no, it is THEY - it is THEY."

    ~ Arthur Cleveland Coxe

    SHADOWS OF A THOUSAND YEARS RISE AGAIN

     UNSEEN.  VOICES WHISPER IN THE TREES,

    "TONIGHT IS HALLOWEEN!"

    The MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD
    Plays Trumpet Ron!
     

    "JACKSON'S LOVE - FOR THE LOVE OF A CHILD" -  MY BRAND NEW CD - HAS JUST BEEN RECORDED - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT PLAYING TRUMPET ...

    "Playing the TRUMPET is such an intangible experience.

    The player is compelled to start FROM THE BEGINNING

    and build anew each day. It isn't like building a house,

    where we can RESUME BUILDING where we left off

    the previous day's accomplishments. EACH NEW DAY

    we must rebuild the foundation of our musical structure."

    ~ Armando Ghitalla

    IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL YOU HAVE TO

    PLAY YOUR BEST WHEN YOU FEEL YOUR WORST.

    Sending Lots of LOVE and RESPECT to you Ron!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT SELF RESPECT ...

    "Don't RELY ON someone else for your HAPPINESS

    and SELF WORTH. Only YOU can be responsible for that.

    If you can't LOVE and RESPECT YOURSELF -

    NO ONE ELSE will be able to make that happen.

    Accept WHO YOU ARE - completely; the good and the bad -

    and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think

    SOMEONE ELSE wants you to be different."

    ~ Stacey Charter

    RESPECT YOURSELF AND YOU WILL LEARN TO LOVE

    AND RESPECT OTHERS. NEVER SELL YOURSELF SHORT!

    YOU ARE BETTER THAN YOU THINK!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT LAUGHTER ...

    LAUGHED OFTEN

     ~ Bessie A. Stanley

    KEEP LAUGHING!  AS LONG AS YOU ARE

    LAUGHING YOU STILL HAVE HOPE!

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ON EXPERIENCE  ...

    "GOOD JUDGEMENT comes from EXPERIENCE,

    and EXPERIENCE comes from BAD JUDGEMENT."
     
     ~ Barry LePatner

    EXPERIENCE IS A HARD TEACHER BECAUSE SHE GIVES

    THE TEST FIRST AND THE LESSON AFTERWARDS!
